Famous quotes containing the words national and/or home:
“The Federated Republic of Europe—the United States of Europe—that is what must be. National autonomy no longer suffices. Economic evolution demands the abolition of national frontiers. If Europe is to remain split into national groups, then Imperialism will recommence its work. Only a Federated Republic of Europe can give peace to the world.”
—Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)
“Huw: Bron, would you have me to live in this house, and have my wages?
Bronwen: Your home is with your mother.
Huw: It was she who sent me.
Bronwen: From pity.
Huw: No, from sense. If you put clothes on night and morning, let them be my clothes.
Bronwen: Good old man.”
—Philip Dunne (1908–1992)
